Fully illustrated compendium of the 18 New York forts that played significant and strategic roles during the Revolutionary War. During the Revolutionary War, forts in New York were instrumental in initiating and maintaining America's desire for independence and helped the nascent nation to eventually prevail. These forts saw crucial, campaign-determining naval battles, and pivotal land engagements between battle-hardened well-led British troops and unproven American militia. In both land and sea engagements the garrisons deployed a range of weapons including different calibers of smooth-bore cannon, howitzers, musket, bayonets, and even tomahawks. Covering Amsterdam, Clinton, Fort Clinton at West Point, Dayton, Decker, Flagstaff, Au Fer, Brooklyn, Defiance, Franklin, Golgotha, Herkimer, Jay, Klock, Montgomery, Niagra Old Stone Fort, Salonga, Stanwix, Ticonderoga, Wadsworth, and Washington, this expert text discusses design, armament, and current status of the forts. It explores their garrisons, commanders, and the battles fought, as well as the spatial and military dependent relationships these forts had with one another. AUTHOR: Michael Garlock is the author of From Soldier to Civilian and Cathedrals of War?A Guide to Florida's Coastal Fortifications. He has written articles for The Artilleryman, The World & I, North and South, and America's Civil War. He is the author of the popular eBook series The Centurion Chronicles.
